CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Charlie never answered Connie's question and instead walked to the reception desk.
"Can everyone listen up" said Charlie
Everyone stopped and gathered around Charlie at reception.
"allot, if not all of you have probably realized that zoe has been acting strangely today and you will know or have heard of nick Jordan are previous clinical lead, as allot of you know nick and zoe were once engaged a long time ago before nick moved to Milligan" began Charlie "what all of you won't know is that over two years ago zoe went after nick to Milligan and to cut a long story short they got married and moved back to holby"
Charlie stopped at this point to look at all the confused faces but he knew that the staff needed to know most of what Zoe had just told him.
"as most of you have guessed, zoe is very good at keeping secrets, keeping her private life, private" said Charlie "her and nick where expecting a child when nick passed away, he had five years since his operation and that five years ended two years ago"
Charlie took a deep breathe at this stage, gathering himself to tell everyone the end.
"with the stress of nick dying zoe went into early labour at twenty four weeks and gave birth to a baby girl, named Nicola after nick" said Charlie as his tone of voice got slightly lower "Nicola died when she was two days old and was buried beside nick at a cemetery the hospital overlooks, two years ago today"
All the staff looked at each other not knowing what to make of the news and what would possibly come next.
"I think we should all go down and pay our respects tonight before the pub" said Charlie "I am leaving a book of condolence to bring tonight at reception"
Charlie walked off towards the lift; Tess was the only one who knew where he was going, to Keller where he hoped to see Zoe in the cemetery.
"Is what you said true?" said Tess as she entered the lift with Charlie.
"Every single bit" said Charlie pressing the button as the lift door closed
"She could have told us" said Tess "why didn't she tell us?"
"That's the question I have asked too many times" said Charlie "and guess who was holding her hand"
"Who?" said Tess as the elevator doors opened and she and Charlie stepped out
"Dylan" said Charlie "he works in ST James and was the only person who knew about the whole thing"
"No way" said Tess
"I know, Dylan over us" said Charlie
"You sound offended" said Tess
Charlie ignored the question and walked over to the window where you could see right across the cemetery, you could even see Zoe lying on the bench beside nick and Nicolas grave.
